Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 6.112.1

AVŚ 6.112.1

मा ज्येष्ठं वधीद् अयम् अग्न एषाम् मूलबर्हणात् परि पाह्य् एनम् । स ग्राह्याः पाशान् वि चृत प्रजानन् तुभ्यं देवा अनु जानन्तु विश्वे ॥१॥

mā jyeṣṭhaṃ vadhīd ayam agna eṣām mūlabarhaṇāt pari pāhy enam | sa grāhyāḥ pāśān vi cṛta prajānan tubhyaṃ devā anu jānantu viśve ||1||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Let not this one, O Agni, slay the oldest of them; protect him from uprooting; do thou, foreknowing, unfasten the bonds of the seizure (grā́hi); let all the gods assent to thee.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
